Use What You Have

Fitness covers a lot of area. Look it up and you’ll find physical, mental, financial and more. If you ignore any of them, you’ll know it. For me, I’ve lost some fitness points because I haven’t utilized some of my work. In other words, I feel compelled to recreate things that don’t need it. Images and blog titles are one of them.

Take This One For Example

This is one of the images I created for my “Positive Affirmation” video. There are 20 images in this series. All of them are about Fitness. They are all in the fitness section of my video. I created it to keep me motivated. I also used it to work on some of my image and video skills. But I ran into a problem.

I Listened To Someone Else

When I created it, I had a coach. I asked them to look at it from a coaching standpoint.They told me it was ‘too long’, ‘too intense’ and ‘too confining’. So I quit listening to it. And this is what happened.

I quit exercising as much.

I gained 50 lbs.

I quit tracking things.

My Fasting Blood Sugar became elevated.

My energy, income, and self-esteem plummeted.

So much for ‘coaching’ eh.

But It’s Not Their Fault

It is in fact, mine. I shouldn’t have listened to them. They were looking at it from their skillset. Which is slow, dumb, stupid, and useless. That’s why they are a ‘coach’. They found a buzzword and latched onto to it. They are a copier, a parrot and a non-visionary. You may think that’s cold, but it’s not. It’s facing the facts and dealing with them. It’s how I operate best. It may not be for everyone, but it works for me.

I’m Compassionate To A Fault

At least that’s how several friends have described me. I didn’t understand it at first, but I do now. I won’t get into that discussion too deeply. I hope you understand,.

What Does This Have To Do With This Post?

This is a One And Done System. I need to use things I have. I don’t need to recreate things all the time. Sometimes I will need an image, and don’t quite know where it will come from. Now I do. I’ll repurpose those that I already created. I’ll start where I am and use what I have. It’s what I call “The Shamgar Method“.
